My query (2 Feb) was also skipped. This is the 2nd query I'm sending this agent and I'm wondering if she discounts queries from authors she has already rejected once. Anyone else experience this?

Submitted Query for 97,000 word sci fi ya novel Nov 2nd it’s Nov 24th now haven’t heard anything but the website says she hopes to respond by the end of the month so should hear next week. I’ll update as I hear. Some got fast rejections on here so hopefully that’s a good sign she’s considering. Her wish list is updated it says no tech thrillers. Is that new? I wonder if my story inspired that, it’s not a tech thriller, but I guess might be seen as one. It’s now December 8 and still no answer so I assume she just didn’t respond and it’s a no still no answer jan 4. Still no answer I wonder if she missed mine after not responding within the same month so I sent a follow up email asking if she looked at it. I think I can consider this a pass and query another agent at that agrncy

I seem to be one of the unlucky ones not to get a response. queried in August. I left a note from the website that said if you don't hear back in 12 weeks, it's a pass.
So, here's my stat:
queried 8/10/22
CNR 11/27/22 109 days

I posted on here several months ago about not receiving a response. A few others were in my boat. Now I see someone did receive a response who submitted in early October. What about those of us left hanging from May/June? Anyone know what’s going on?

@JodeneWeber - Same! Only I queried her in May and I've been skipped. Perhaps she keeps a maybe pile?
